Description
India that is Bharat explores how European 'colonial consciousness' shaped Bharat's development. From the Age of Discovery to the Government of India Act of 1919, this book examines the period when Western powers influenced Bharat's constitution and international relations. The author investigates the origins of concepts like 'toleration', 'secularism', and 'humanism', tracing them back to Christian political theology. This work also explores Middle Eastern coloniality, which preceded European variants, and how they interacted in Bharat to challenge the indigenous Indic worldview. By understanding these historical influences, readers can gain insight into the complex history of Bharat's constitution and its ongoing impact on contemporary society.
